    My girl Cousin, my Aunt, and my sister all ran scrapers for our company, Cat621s and Cat 633 C and D.🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ like a car, take a few laps, then be attentive to what works and what doesn't!

    A recent trend up in north California ag country where I operate is having women operate heavy ag equipment. They tend to have less ego and this translates into less wear and tear on equipment.

    First of all she's doing a good job running that scraper. I started out on a ts24 Hannah run everything from a 613 to 6:41 caterpillar when I started they didn't have the cushion Goose necks like they do nowadays but I have run them with cushion they are nice. I always carry my below for two reasons first a lot of the old scrapers didn't have brakes and he had to drag the bowl to stop so you wanted to close to the ground, second they all work better with the bow down and use the Hydraulics is a little bit of cushion and when I run one with a cushion I always have kept the phone down for for just safety reasons and they do write a little bit better and you keep your center of gravity low and you don't turn over quite as quick just an old scraper hands thoughts thanks for listening

    That's what turns an operator into a finisher that and in the fill if you can jump off the edge and it's the right material not wet so your sliding but carve that whole slope and make it a 4/1 and look like a dozer did it then your on your way to maybe never leaving the seat always need at least one at least if not two or three even more experienced ppl and it makes life for everyone so much nicer

      Women are in scrapers strictly because of minority laws. This lady would be gone in ten minutes on any dirt hogging job because she would be in the way all day. Any scraper hand running on sight with the bowl hummed all the way up is a rookie and you tell by which head most of the commenter are thinking. Eye for dirt is the reason she's in the scraper instead of dozer . Blade or finish scraper. Go watch a actual scraper video on here and you'll see what moving dirt actually all about.

    I have been a scraper operator for almost 10 years. 621, 627, 631, 637, 651, 657, E-F-G and today was in a 627F Auger. There's many women who operate heavy equipment and some of the best operators that I've had pleasure of working with have been female. This shouldn't be shocking information. Women do the same work that any man does. It's just the "traditional" gender roles that the worlds population needs to stop assuming for everyone.

    i never really got the push pull thing. you see the tires spinning under full load, and it gives me the heebs. we used to run 2 or 3 - 627's depending on the haul length paired with an older D7. the scrapers would boil dirt out with no strain. and the old D7 didn't care. with a big old sheepsfoot on the other end, we'd get compaction plus in almost any weather. just my two cents...

    Hi, Folks.
    While I applaud women getting into operating, I'm gonna take a different tack here and ask a 'kwestyun':
    "If she has two hands, two feet, two eyes and a brain, just 'wottinell' is so danged remarkable about a woman operating a machine?" That's the same basic equipment that most men operate with.
    It'za matter of personal choice. If she wants to do it and can hold her end up, I say, "GO for it."
    I will say one thing about her though. She gets up in that cab and takes off like she 'owns' it.
    Just my 0.02.
    You all have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.
